Rehabilitation aims to increase the independence and physical function after injury, surgery, or other trauma, so that patients can recover to their previous ability as much as possible. To be able to measure the degree of recovery and impact of the treatment, various functional performance tests are used. The Eight Hop Test is a hop exercise that is directly linked to the rehabilitation of people suffering from tendon and ligament injuries on the lower limb. This paper presents a systematic review on the use of sensors for measuring functional movements during the execution of the Eight Hop Test, focusing primarily on the use of sensors, related diseases, and different methods implemented. Firstly, an automated search was performed on the publication databases: PubMed, Springer, ACM, IEEE Xplore, MDPI, and Elsevier. Secondly, the publications related to the Eight-Hop Test and sensors were filtered according to several search criteria and 15 papers were finally selected to be analyzed in detail. Our analysis found that the Eight Hop Test measurements can be performed with motion, force, and imaging sensors.

Purpose: Patellofemoral instability is a common knee condition and often associated with trochlear dysplasia. Sulcus-deepening trochleoplasty is a surgical option to reshape the trochlear groove and stabilise the patella. Although this procedure is considered safe and effective, the development of postoperative patellofemoral chondral lesions remains a topic of concern.

Background: Studies reporting paediatric meniscal repair outcomes are limited, often retrospective and lacking objective outcomes. This study sought to determine clinical outcomes, return to sport (RTS), meniscal healing and re-injury rates in paediatric patients undergoing meniscal repair, with or without anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).
Methods: Overall, 32 paediatric patients (mean age 13.

Introduction: Medication adherence is crucial for effective management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, the medication adherence rates among patients with COPD is generally low due to various influencing factors. This study aimed to identify predictors of medication adherence among Vietnamese patients with COPD.

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is a widely performed orthopedic procedure aimed at restoring knee function. However, return-to-sport (RTS) outcomes remain inconsistent due to variability in rehabilitation strategies, psychological readiness, and the integration of emerging technologies.
Objective: This umbrella review synthesizes high-level evidence on rehabilitation strategies influencing successful RTS post-ACLR, including functional assessments, strength recovery, psychological readiness, blood flow restriction (BFR) training, and wearable technologies.
